EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the year 1902, showcases a group of proud and accomplished nurses from Spelman Seminary in Atlanta, Georgia, USA. The image, now held at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture at the New York Public Library, is a testament to the groundbreaking education and training provided to African American women during this era. Dressed in their formal nursing uniforms, the nurses exude confidence and professionalism as they gather outdoors, likely on the campus of Spelman College. The black and white image, with its crisp contrast and sharp details, captures the essence of a pivotal moment in American history. The identity of the photographer remains unknown, but the photograph is a valuable addition to the Jean Blackwell Hutson Research and Reference Division of the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. The nurses' uniforms, with their high collars, long sleeves, and crisp white aprons, are reminiscent of the formal attire worn by nurses during this time period. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history of African American education and healthcare in the United States, as well as the important role that Spelman Seminary played in shaping the lives of countless women. The nurses' dedication to their professions, as well as their unwavering commitment to their community, is evident in this powerful and evocative image.
